I guess I'm looking for a new friend πŸ’šπŸ¦

WorriedMagpie July 21st, 2022

I feel wierd doing this - I was buddied up with a person but it looks like they left without saying anything πŸ˜” -- if you ever come back your always welcome to message me πŸ’šπŸ¦

So I guess I'm on the lookout for another friend, somebody to work towards just being better overall - maybe set some goals and encourage each other? I found having somebody to bounce off was starting to really help -- we can help each other :)

I'll not be as over the top and intense, I was just trying to be encouraging πŸ˜” - it would be awesome if anyone's out there that could match my energy and not be scared of me, as I'm still kinda figuring out who I am πŸ™ƒ

If your okay with spam messages and too many emojis then hit me up :)

A bit about me? -- I'm 29 and live in the UK, I have ADHD which I'm trying to work with and I'm trying to become a full time illustrator :)

I guess that's it? It does feel strange doing this a second time, like I failed the first πŸ˜” I can't wait to here from you and be your new "get healthy" buddy

Hey! How are you doing? ☺️ I’ve been on this app for a while now, and this is the first time I’m replying to a post. I’m looking for a friend as well, someone I can talk to both with regards to trivial things and deep, personal things. I get sad sometimes, and so I really need someone to talk to. But of course at the same time I will do my best to be a good friend as well! ☺️ I also like the idea of encouraging each other and setting goals to be better. Plus, I like emojis! πŸ˜…

Please don’t hesitate to message me if you’re interested. ☺️

Hey 😊 wow I'm honoured I think I've been spending a bit too much time in the forums recently ! πŸ˜…πŸ€£

Thankyou so much for replying to my thread, I was concerned it just came off as super needy 😣

It would be wonderful to be friends if you'd have me :) I think I'm pretty good at peptalks so I got your back, but I need some help staying on track πŸ™ƒπŸ™ƒ working in goals together would be awesome :D

Currently I'm trying to stay on top of keeping a schedule, I've never managed it for longer than a few days - I've gone three weeks this time and now it's starting to fall apart a bit πŸ˜…πŸ€¦

What sort of goals do you have art the moment? πŸ˜ŠπŸ’šπŸ¦

Hey! I’m glad to be talking to you! I’m not sure how I can be of help with regards to your staying on track, but I would be open to learn more about it. πŸ™‚

A goal I want to achieve is to be able to regularly practice my writing. I love writing stories, and I don’t always have time for it. When I do, I tend to procrastinate. I need to work on that. πŸ˜…

Is there a way for us to talk in private? Like the same as with listeners? I find it more convenient. Of course, only if you want to as well. ☺️

@stressedindividual

:) Me too! - and don't worry, it's more just having someone saying their working on goals too, it's motivating even if we're working in totally different directions 😁

Writing! :0 that's awesome! What kind of things do you like to write? I'm trying to get into children's book illustration 😁

I'm not sure πŸ€” other than the chat rooms I think it's only if one of us is a listener 😣 which isn't the most convenient but yeaaah πŸ˜£πŸ™ƒπŸ™ƒπŸ’š

Oh that’s awesome! ☺️


When I write, I tend to just go with the flow of my thoughts. Tons of inner monologues, basically. But I like complications and tragedies. I also like stories that are kind of… unique? I’m not sure what they’re called. Like psychological or something? Oh you’re an illustrator? That’s awesome! What do you like most about it?


Oh that’s too bad! How do you usually chat with people here?

@stressedindividual

Sorry it took a while to reply, with a few people replying on here i got a little overwhelemed and didnt know what to do :') -- maybe we could have a slightly bigger "goal hitting" group ? :')

ooh those all sound super interesting, i used to write (fanfic XD ) when I was younger but havnt for a while now, although im currently pondering a comic series which Id need to write :')

Honestly theres not much i dont like (other than feet and hands XD) -- I love character designing and painting with loads of colours and shapes, if its making me smile whilst painting it then i feel like im doing a good job :D

Yeah not sure what to do other than meeting int he chat rooms :') but maybe we could start a new thread on this forum for goal hitting purposes :) -- or even on the goals/accomplishments one like IsayUncle mentions lower down :)

@WorriedMagpie

Hi Magpie,

Sorry about your friend. Sometimes things just happen. I do hope they're ok too. I think we've replied and commented on a couple posts recently. I noticed there are a couple people here talking about goals. Some of the elders here renamed a forum for me called Goals and Accomplishments. I'm basically becoming the soul contributer thus far but mostly but I'm hoping to have help building it into a proactive goal setting platform. Right now its listed in the "Fun" catagory (to the) "Positivity & Gratitude" community (to the) "Goals and Accomplishments" forum.

I hope you do find another good consistent friend you can be wacky, weird and over the top with! 😜πŸ’ͺ😎❀️

Hey Uncle :)

Thankyou for saying that, I do hope shes okay too I know she had a lot of things going on so I just hope nothing bads happened :(

Yeah I've spotted your doings on there! - Im trying to find a bit more balance on 7cups so Ive not been there as much as Id like but it seems like youve been doing some awesome work there! - I think starting a thread there is a a great idea :) -- looks like im recruiting a small team XD assuming people want to work together, we'll probably see you over there :D

I could use a friend too today, and happy to be there for anyone else who needs it.


I’m 41, sober for almost 5 years, and living in foreign country where I don’t know anyone, and just kind of generally struggling with it. This last month in particular has been pretty depressing and lonely. I deal with anxiety too and it’s really been tough, but I’m a good listener, so happy to connect :)

Hey Chris I'm sorry you've been having such a rough time πŸ˜” moving countries sounds like a huge change! I've never moved much further than the next city!

If you fancy joining the merry gang of friends and goal smashers you are absolutely more than welcome :D honestly as I was working with the person that left it was really helping with my anxiety, especially those tasks that I just put off for days :') - maybe joining up with us could help ? :)

I'm gunna wait for some of the people up top to reply (if they do) but after I'm thinking I'll put a new thread together for us all as a little safe space :) - let me know what you think! πŸ’šπŸ¦

chrislfcdc July 27th, 2022

@WorriedMagpie yeah, it's really been kind of a challenge. I'd definitely fancy getting in on the little group though, and I like the idea of a place for everyone just fine!

@chrislfcdc

I can imagine! And glad your up for it :) hopefully you can bounce off us a bit and maybe feel a bit more comfortable where you are πŸ’š

Is there any specific goals you'd like to work on? :) - for me right now I'm trying to integrate the long term goals into short term goals and stay organised :D
